tip and i mean selling the calls in a buy/write.

the calls do go up, but usually not as much as the underlying.

You need to look at the total position erg. The stock has also appreciated -- as the calls go deeper and deeper into the money they lose time premium -- that's what a buy/write is for -- otherwise you are simply trading the call options against the stock. That can be profitable, too -- but that is not a 'traditional buy/write.'
